Description
Jasminum officinale is a popular fast growing deciduous climber with small, green, pointed leaves that will remain semi-evergreen in warmer regions and has a twinning habit. But it is the clusters of small, highly fragrant, star shaped flowers, pinkish in bud and opening to pure white that are the selling point of this beautiful climber. The common jasmine is particularly good for sheltered and sunny positions scrambling through trees and on roof terraces, gardens and patios are a perfect spot for this distinct and highly fragrant climber.
